Tales of Terrarum: A Fantasy Life Sim Where You Build Your Own Town
Imagine telling early video game enthusiasts that life simulation games would become a dominant genre, surpassing even shooters and platformers. They'd likely be astonished. But the success of numerous life sims already released is undeniable, and now we have another contender: Tales of Terrarum.
In this fantasy world, you inherit land as a descendant of the noble Francz family, becoming the mayor of your burgeoning town. This isn't just about Animal Crossing-style relaxation; you'll also need to develop businesses, manage finances, cultivate relationships with your townsfolk, and even assemble adventuring parties. These parties will venture into the wider world, battling enemies and bringing back valuable resources to further your town's growth and prosperity.
While some minor aspects, like the localization of promotional materials, could be improved, Tales of Terrarum is a welcome addition to the life-simulation genre, particularly within the under-explored fantasy sub-genre. The dream of building your idyllic fantasy town is now within reach.
